After capturing Temurtaş, Sultan Orhan is determined to advance toward the Biga Strait, a move that causes great unease on Demirhan Bey’s side. Demirhan pressures Dursun to rescue Temurtaş, leaving Dursun torn between his family and his conscience, and it remains uncertain whether he will betray Sultan Orhan. Meanwhile, tensions between Nilüfer Hatun and Asporça escalate into a fierce confrontation following the attack, signaling new fractures in the camp; words give way to swords, and it is unclear whether the conflict will end in bloodshed.

Believing that Sultan Orhan has overstepped his bounds, Şahinşah and Avcı begin planning their own moves, with Şahinşah arranging a marriage between his son and Fatma Hatun; Flavius faces a critical choice between love and enmity. In Constantinople, Alaeddin Bey is sent to position his armies along the İznik–İzmit line, but the emperor imposes a surprising condition: Sultan Orhan must marry Asporça. Amid these developments, Asporça’s anger continues to grow, convinced that the only way for the war to end is Sultan Orhan’s death, pushing the limits of tension ever higher.
